Do it Robin,
i want to do my phase 2 gsi to LET power eventually as i miss my old one..
used to beat alsorts of cars evo 6 TME, evo 8, scoobs, type R's, astra mk4 turbo etc etc!
i had full adjustable konis and the handling wasnt that bad after being set up properly! got some bilsteins on my new astra but wana get front and rear braces also...
please dont touch a phase 1 mk3 astra as most are pretty rotten, get a decent phase 2 GSI and build it yourself 
I saw you yesterday at the traffic lights beside singer station. Car is looking good.
alright, what car where u in mate?

They look much better with the reiger arches imo, never been keen on the flat rears!! There was a brocade yellow reiger arched 1.6 sport for sale about a year ago. Was lovely. And yes Ojc, i was interested in it.

My mate john has a 340bhp LET mk2 astra which he apparently drove to 172mph and backed off cos he was too scared to go any faster! I believe him because I have been in it and it was ridiculously fast! Featured in total vauxhall (issue with a flip painted vectra on the front). My point being, he bought a mk3 astra gsi ecotec as a sensible car, he soon got fed up with that and put a LET in it! lol! Apparently a great combination (mk3 + LET)
